User ID: 1149868  Germany06/27/2013 07:46 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes, afaik you can get worms from cats and dogs. You usually get a pill or two, the worms die from it and you poop them out. Thats it. "The world will soon wake up to the reality that everyone is broke and can collect nothing from the bankrupt, who are owed unlimited amounts by the insolvent, who are attempting to make late payments on a bank holiday in the wrong country, with an unacceptable currency, against defaulted collateral, of which nobody is sure who holds title." Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. The woman who is not pursued sets up the doctrine that pursuit is offensive to her sex, and wants to make it a felony.

I have to take the kitty in this week for a follow up poop exam, so hopefully she's dewormed from what we've been giving her. If not, they're all getting medicine!

In theory, you could get anything from any pet, but thew intestinal worms are usually associated with what you eat (and usually with infected pork's meat) In the present day there's a lot of remedies on that. If you0're looking for something more natural and less pharmacological, mmmmh... try firstly with poleo mint tea. |

Pretty common in cats. And while it is possible you could end up infected it's also fairly unlikely. As was mentioned before.
